Acts 27:20
Compare all
18 And because we were exceedingly tempest-tossed, the next day they lightened the ship.
19 On the third day awe threw the ship’s tackle overboard with our own hands.  
20 Now when neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small tempest beat on us, all hope that we would be saved was finally given up.
21 But after long abstinence from food, then Paul stood in the midst of them and said, “Men, you should have listened to me, and not have sailed from Crete and incurred this disaster and loss.
22 And now I urge you to take heart, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.  
23 aFor there stood by me this night an angel of the God to whom I belong and bwhom I serve,  
24 saying, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul; you must be brought before Caesar; and indeed God has granted you all those who sail with you.’
25 Therefore take heart, men, afor I believe God that it will be just as it was told me.  
26 However, awe must run aground on a certain island.”  
27 Now when the fourteenth night had come, as we were driven up and down in the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors sensed that they were drawing near some land.

Acts 27:20

Neither sun nor stars appeared for many days - Which they could the less spare, before the compass was found out.
